During the Great Patriotic War, many heroic and outstanding people fought in the ranks of the Soviet Army and among the partisans. One of them is Varvara Petrovna Vyrvich. She is considered one of the most successful saboteurs of that war. Everyone knew her by the nickname "Bandit Katya". During the years of Nazi occupation, it operated in the vicinity of the city of Dobrusha, Gomel region. 3,000 marks, five pounds of salt and a plot of 25 hectares were offered for her capture.
Varvara was born in the Belarusian town of Rechitsa in 1922. Her father was the director of a match factory in Pinsk.
Before the war, she entered the Polytechnic Institute in Odessa and was going to become an engineer. When the war began, she was finishing her second year.
Vyrvich went to the front to serve as a volunteer. In the sanitary echelon, she worked as a nurse.
But soon she became seriously ill. She was taken off the train, left at the Kagan station. After
recovering, Varvara entered the scout school in Bukhara. Here she mastered demolition and mining, learned how to shoot machine guns and automatic weapons, learned the basics of the profession of a radio operator.
